Ye Fan glared at his daughter: "Speak nicely!"
"Okay." Erbao obediently pointed out that the sleeves were too loose in the creases, like a dragon robe.
Ye Fan asked Erbao to put it on, and then found a needle to sew half of the armpit. Chu Guangming cocked his head and looked at it: "It's relaxed now."
Erbao nodded: "Mom still thinks my words are ugly."
Ye Fan ignored his daughter: "Dabao, put on your pants."
Dabao: "Should I wear short clothes?"
Erbao looked at the size of the pants and said, "Mom, it's a small size. Let Chu Guangming wear it." He handed it to Chu Guangming. Chu Guangming gestured, bringing the waistband of his pants to his chest. If the waistband of the pants reaches the waist, there will be a lot of crowding around the ankles.
Geng Sensen didn't want to laugh, but he couldn't help it: "Auntie, where did Uncle Chang find the designer?"
Ye Fan was not that surprised. The uniforms she bought for school in her previous life were so exaggerated: "Dabao, bring me your sportswear."
Dabao brought over the foreign famous brand his mother bought for him: "Compared with this set of sportswear, my sportswear is more like casual wear that can be worn daily."
Ye Fan stared at the clothes and pondered for a moment: "I suspect Chang Guangrong didn't make it clear. Although we plan to sponsor the University Games, we have no plans to produce school uniforms."
Erbao exclaimed: "Don't produce school uniforms?"
Ye Fan: "It is not compulsory for schools to buy uniforms. There are only a few in each school, and not many students in the city. We want to produce sportswear that can be worn by men, women, and children."
Erbao frowned: "But the school uniforms can't be so exaggerated. The sportswear you bought for me and my brother won't hinder our exercises. I even wore them to practice Tai Chi this morning."
"Your sportswear and trousers are slim-fitting. Although they are comfortable to wear, they look inelegant when you move them." Ye Fan said, "Being a teacher is inevitably a bit strict and old-fashioned. Maybe the teacher gave her some advice, so the young designer Be so relaxed.”
Erbao: "Can you take it off first?"
Ye Fan nodded: "Tell me about the fabric."
Geng Huihui also wanted to laugh when she heard this: "Auntie, your clothes are so loose, even wearing a sack will not hurt your skin."
Ye Fan couldn't help but laugh: "I'll go back and ask her to design two sets of close-fitting clothes. Dabao, put the clothes away."
"Then what should we do with this set now?" Dabao asked.
Ye Fan; "Let her change it until you are satisfied."
Dabao said: "Didn't you buy a lot of sets for Uncle Chang? Uncle Chang also said that he would give them to us after using them. If you ask him to make a set based on each style he bought, he might know how to design it."
Erbao disagreed: "Brother, this is plagiarism!"
"The styles my mother bought are actually similar, but the colors, trademarks and fabrics are different." Dabao pointed to his sportswear trademark, "I covered the logo and the color of the clothes turned pure white. Do you still recognize which sportswear this is? Besides, Yes, making money is called plagiarism. Buying it and following it is learning. He has the inspiration to design a new piece of clothing and sell it, which is called innovation. ”
Ye Fan nodded: "Erbao, if you don't sell it out once it's finished, it won't be judged as plagiarism if it's exactly the same. It's like if you go to the library and copy a book and take it home to read for yourself, the author won't sue you for plagiarism. You That’s what I mean.”
Erbao: "Can he help but not learn from it?"
Ye Fan told her that it depends on how the intellectual property department decides. Plagiarism may or may not constitute plagiarism. Even if I feel it is not considered plagiarism, it may constitute plagiarism. Later, Ye Fan stated that she had indeed copied it and Chang Guangrong would not use her. You can’t have a reputation of plagiarism before your brand is established.
"Uncle Chang can carry it clearly." Erbao was very satisfied with his mother's explanation.
Dabao winked at his mother: "Can you carry it clearly?"
Ye Fan shook his head: "The legal person of the company is Chang Guangrong. He holds 55%. Besides me, there are two other shareholders. But it hasn't been registered yet. It's not too late to set up a factory and buy machines for mass production after the clothes are finished."
Geng Sensen couldn't help but ask: "Is it too late?"
Ye Fan: "There's enough time. We have fabric manufacturers who can help us get machines. If we can't rent a suitable factory for the time being, we can still make it at Chang Guangrong's house. Several garment factories in Yongcheng only had their own factories last year. Since the reform It was a family workshop until last year.”
A group of ignorant people didn’t expect it to be so easy to set up a factory.
Erbao asked: "Mom, who will you sell it to?"
Ye Fan: "Put it in our store, as well as your cousins' stores, as well as Xiao Ming and Jianshe. Chang Guangrong only has one designer, so he might not be able to make it custom-made."
Dabao was surprised, the designer makes clothes.
Seeing this, Ye Fan said: "This designer is a junior designer. Let her do the work first, and then hand it over to the tailor after she gets used to it. From now on, she will specialize in design, and she seems to have to be a pattern maker. Mom doesn't understand this line of work. Uncle Chang has I am a student at the Fashion College, and I will leave this aspect to him in the future.”
Dabao and his brothers and sisters couldn't believe it.
Chu Guangming couldn't help but ask: "In order to run a clothing factory, you went to the university to audit?"
Ye Fan nodded: "Because we don't understand."
Chu Guangming sighed: "With such seriousness, it's no wonder that Aunt Ye and Uncle Chang have never lost money in business."
Ye Fan smiled: "Er Bao, do you have any good suggestions on colors?"
Erbao: "I don't like things that are too bright."
Ye Fan pointed to the elegant porcelain on the Bogu shelf: "That kind?"
Erbao nodded.
Dabao objected: "Mom, exercise should be full of passion and vitality. Do you still want to exercise when you are wearing mourning clothes?" Glancing at Erbao, "It's okay to sit in a cafe."
Erbao was so angry: "I was talking to mom, not you."
Ye Fan: "Shut up, both of you! Huihui, go cook!"
Geng Sensen went to the kitchen to help.
Geng Zhiqin gave birth to a daughter on the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month last year. At first, Yu Wentao went there during the day and came back at night. Recently, Geng Zhiqin went to school as a substitute teacher, and Yu Wentao was also there at night, feeding the child. Leave it to Sun Laifu's mother during the day.
Sun Laifu's mother was embarrassed to ask her biological mother to take care of the child alone. Chang Guangrong's child could walk and run and did not like to be nestled in the arms of elders. Chang Guangrong's wife thought she and her father could see it, so she asked her mother to go to her sister-in-law's house to talk to him. Yu Wentao lives in a room.
On Sundays or when Sun Laifu is on vacation, Yu Wentao will come back. Yu Wentao asked Ye Fan if she could bring the child over during the summer vacation. She thought it was inconvenient for Geng Zhiqin to live upstairs.
There are many people in the family, Huihui, Sensen, Dabao and Erbao can all help, and Ye Fan doesn't need to take care of him. Ye Fan doesn't need to be a bad guy, so naturally he says it's okay.
The children were very happy that Yu Wentao was not at home. Yu Wentao likes to eat noodles at night, which are cooked softly. The little ones don't like that bite, so they boil alkaline noodles tonight.
Dabao said while eating: "It's good that grandma is not at home. You can cook this kind of noodles every day."
Ye Fan: "You have been a white-collar worker for these years."
Dabao said: "I feel sorry for her too. I won't let her go to my sister-in-law's house. She insists on going, but I can't talk about it."
Geng Huihui nodded repeatedly: "I feel like grandma has to put in money to help my sister-in-law take care of the children."
Ye Fan glanced at the younger ones: "Anyone can say that, except you. Huihui, you haven't missed your grandma's salary."
Geng Huihui smiled unnaturally: "Isn't it because grandma is not here? I definitely don't dare to say that grandma is at home."
Geng Sensen: "You have no qualifications even if grandma is not here. She raised you and Benben. In the past few years, you two were having trouble eating roast duck every three days -"
"How do you know?" Huihui asked hurriedly.
Geng Sensen looked at Dabao subconsciously.
Geng Huihui glared at her little cousin: "Talk too much!"
Dabao: "I didn't say——"
"Telling him in a letter doesn't count?"
Dabao nodded.
Geng Huihui was too lazy to pay attention to him.
After the meal, Ye Fan asked Dabao and Erbao to wash the pots and dishes. She sorted out a few small comments and sewed a few stitches on the sportswear. The next morning, she gave the comments and clothes to Chang Guangrong. go.
It’s not that the young designer has never thought of imitating, but he thinks imitation is plagiarism. Chang Guangrong told him that non-profits would not be punished for plagiarism, so he asked his classmates to copy the famous brands bought by Chang Guangrong.
The young designer drew down the famous brand styles, and Chang Guangrong sent the clothes to Ye Fan's house. Women's clothing for Huihui and Erbao. Men's sportswear for Dabao and Sensen. Ye Fan also left two sets for Geng Leile, who had seen the dragon but not its tail. A few sets of the smallest numbers were given to Chu Guangming.
The young designer completely ruined the cloth sent by Chang Guangrong and finally came up with a decent set. But the colors were too ugly—black with purple, red with green, and Ye Fan had a black line on his forehead.
Ye Fan didn't even wait for Erbao to get out of school and asked Chang Guangrong to send it to Xiao Design to remind her to learn color matching.
Chang Guangrong was about to leave, and Ye Fan suddenly thought of something: "Is your designer a boy or girl?"
"A man." Chang Guangrong asked, "Didn't I say that?"
Ye Fan nodded: "You didn't say. How to find a man?"
"It's not good for women to follow me." Chang Guangrong said, "Besides, female students don't bother to work for us. After all, we have nothing now." Ye Fanxin asked, are male students willing?
Chang Guangrong saw what she was thinking and immediately explained that the male student was in a special situation. The father of the male student hopes that he will go to the police academy or become a teacher, or an accountant or a doctor.
None of the male classmates were interested, so they changed their minds despite the fact. In the first year, his parents thought he was studying in the normal school in the capital. The fire can't be contained in the paper. It was discovered last summer that he did not go to normal school. His father believed that men designing clothes were for men and women, so he ordered him to drop out of school and retake the exam.
The male classmates didn't listen. My father originally threatened me with living expenses. However, the school provides subsidies and he can complete his studies without any living expenses from his family. When his father saw that this trick was useless, he disowned his son.
He didn't go back until the day before last year's winter vacation. He said that when he came back on the eighth day of the lunar month, he was worried that his family would not welcome him and he had to come out early. In fact, he came out on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. Chang Guangrong can cook and rest on the second floor of the clothing store. The young designer stayed in his store before school started.
Chang Guangrong gave an overview of the young designer's situation, and couldn't help but say: "As long as my family can get into college, I don't care what he studies. Anyway, it's impossible for a teacher to teach stealing, robbery, and smashing."
"It turns out that my family doesn't support it." Ye Fan said, "A rural child, right?"
Chang Guangrong was surprised: "How do you know?"
Ye Fan: "There are just a few clothes in the countryside. Even if he has learned color matching, it is normal for him to mix and match randomly because he has little experience. Like Erbao, if he is used to wearing good clothes and good color matching, he will not want to try purple with black."
Chang Guangrong never noticed: "Is his aesthetic similar to Xiao Ming and Jianshe?"
Ye Fan: "Absolutely. Maybe Xiao Ming also thinks the red flowers and green willows are beautiful."
Chang Guangrong said: "I will ask him to correct it. Or ask him to ask his classmates."
"Did you complete this outfit with your classmates?"
Chang Guangrong: "Yes, a female classmate who is one year above him. The female classmate seems to like him, but the female classmate wants to go abroad. I am really afraid that she will seduce him away."
Ye Fan: "The family does not support it. A rural child has little money and limited knowledge. He dare not go out. Unless he has no choice but to go out."
The current situation is that Chang Guangrong has this path, and he doesn't have to stick to one path.
Chang Guangrong said: "I will go and draw a cake for him."
Ye Fan shook his head and laughed.
Chang Guangrong told the truth. He arrived at school just in time for lunch. Chang Guangrong asked the young designer to treat him. During the meal, he praised the young designer for his good style and reminded him to apply for copyright, as if he was thinking about him. A young designer is like meeting a bosom friend and Bole. It was only then that Chang Guangrong said that the use of colors was too bold and that people in government agencies might not be able to stand it.
The students who were standing back to back with Chang Guangrong wanted to laugh when they heard this. It was ugly and unbearable.
The little designer believed it and told him to change it again. On the way to the workshop, Chang Guangrong promised that in addition to the design fee, he would also receive dividends. The longer you stay with the company, the greater the dividends. He also said that he learned this trick from Ye Fan, the boss of Fanhua.
The young designer had never heard of Ye Fan. He asked his classmates to find out. The classmates praised Ye Fan for being awesome and said that Ye Fan's friends must also be awesome. If he couldn't survive outside, he hoped that his classmates could introduce him to Chang Guangrong. company.
The young designer thought Chang Guangrong was a relatively wealthy second-tier businessman. He and Chang Guangrong actually wanted to make some money to study abroad. After listening to his classmates, he realized that he knew a big shot. This person who had always been a bit stubborn heard Chang Guangrong's words for the first time - change!
In late May, the clothes were delivered to Ye Fan again. It happened to be the weekend, and Dabao and Erbao were both at home. The brother and sister were satisfied with the style and color, but the fabric was a bit different.
Ye Fan: "Now the wages of citizens are not high, and high-end models are hard to sell. We should take the mass route first."
Dabao doesn’t understand much about business matters: “Mom said it will definitely work.”
Erbao asked: "Mom, why haven't you gone to the army recently? Did you have a fight with your father?"
As the words fell, a jeep appeared at the door.
Erbao covered his mouth with horror on his face: "——Is he Sun Wukong?"
Geng Zhiye came in and saw his daughter's guilty look on her face: "What did you say about me again?"
Erbao dragged his brother out. Geng Zhiye reached out and grabbed his daughter: "Where are you running?"
"Mom asked me to call Chu Guangming to come to our house for dinner."
Geng Zhiye let go and came to Ye Fan: "He comes over at noon on weekends too?"
Ye Fan: "Listen to her nonsense. Why come back at noon?"
"I don't want to eat in the army." Geng Zhiye took off his coat and looked around: "Aunt Yu and Huihui are not at home?"
Geng Huihui and Geng Sensen went shopping with Geng Leilei. Yu Wentao was picked up by her nephew. Ye Fan gave a rough explanation: "Worried about them hearing it?"
Geng Zhiye took her to the main room: "I said before that if something happened to those two families, my comrades would suspect that it was my father-in-law who did it. I didn't expect them to really think so."
Even though Ye Fan was mentally prepared, he was still speechless when he heard what Geng Zhiye said: "What kind of brains do your comrades have? Will my father do it himself?"
Geng Zhiye: “It was only because they didn’t find out who did it that they suspected your father.”
"You ignored them?"
Geng Zhiye shook his head: "I said those two families are not worthy. They doubted you again and said that your sister-in-law is really powerful. I wanted to say that it had nothing to do with you, but I felt that the description was getting darker and darker, so I told them to shut up. They were very angry when they saw me and dared not Ask again, but I feel like they think it’s you.”
Ye Fan: "Where is that little officer?"
"I surrendered to that kid and ignored him, as if he didn't know those two families at all." Geng Zhiye said, "This kid is definitely the grandson of some old general. He is so calm and calm!"
Ye Fan smiled and said: "If he doesn't say anything, it will be an unsolved case."
Geng Zhiye felt more at ease after hearing this: "That boy is in a good mood. I feel that his family should be adding fuel to the fire."
"That little officer?" Ye Fan shook his head, "Every time I see him, he is in a good mood. His parents must be very good, otherwise he would not be able to raise such a good child. Someone like Guangming is unique."
Geng Zhiye: "Are you busy lately? If not, go and stay in the army for two days."
Ye Fan thought for a moment: "It's okay."
"Dabao's mom, Dabao's mom——"
Ye Fan looked outside and saw Aunt Li running in anxiously. The couple looked at each other, Geng Zhiye let go, and Ye Fan went out: "Aunt Li, slow down, slow down."
Aunt Li grabbed Ye Fan's arm: "I heard that we are going to demolish it here?"
"Demolish what?"
Aunt Li was shocked: "You don't know? Aren't you setting up a computer company? They said we are going to build a technology industry here. How can we develop technology in this broken house? It must be demolished and a high-rise building built."
Ye Fan: "What's this about?"
"Why are you still laughing? There are so many good things in your house, don't you feel bad if they are torn down?" Aunt Li couldn't help but look into the house as she spoke, "There are so many good things."
Ye Fan couldn't laugh or cry: "It's worthless. You can go to Panjiayuan and buy these for a thousand yuan and you won't be able to use them all."
"That was carefully chosen by you. It didn't take any effort, right?" Aunt Li said, "Back to business, have you really not heard that we are going to demolish it here?"
Ye Fan glanced at the surrounding tile-roofed houses: "The living environment here must be demolished, but I don't know the year of the monkey. But it is better not to demolish it now than to replace it with a building. Don't be too happy."
"I'm not happy to live in a building, but I'm worried about it being demolished. Now I have a small courtyard where I can grow some vegetables. If it's demolished, where can I plant it?" Aunt Li doesn't want it to be demolished, but she wants it to be demolished because she really envies other people's toilets and showers. , anyway, the mood is very complicated.
Ye Fan: "There are still a lot of open spaces in the north. They must have used the open spaces up there, and there is no room for us to demolish them. Just wait patiently for a few years."
Aunt Li didn't panic anymore, but felt a little disappointed: "You're right, there are still a lot of crop fields in the northwest and northeast." Seeing Geng Zhiye, "I won't disturb you two talking about small talk."
Ye Fan walked her outside the door and went to the kitchen.
Geng Zhiye saw that the vegetables had been cut and there was no need for him to do anything, so he found a bench and sat down: "House prices are going to rise."
Ye Fan: "If the price here goes up, you can buy elsewhere. The key is that there is going to be trouble here."
"Making trouble?" Geng Zhiye didn't understand.
Ye Fan looked eastward.
Geng Zhiye thought to himself: Who is there in the east? Suddenly I thought of Uncle Zhang. If the subsidy was large, Zhang Xiaojun would definitely come back to get a share of the pie. Chu Guangming's father from the large courtyard in the west may also come back to take a share. Wei Jianshe's family also had some troubles.
Geng Zhiye tutted: "Will you go to the theater every day from now on?"
"One event every three days." Ye Fan suddenly remembered something: "The house Chang Guangrong asked me to look at will probably have to go up."
Geng Zhiye: "Where?"
“Near Dabao School.”
Geng Zhiye: "There won't be any over there for the time being, so we can't dismantle it."
"I'll go take a look in the afternoon and make a decision to decorate it early. Moving closer to Erbao School will make it convenient for her to go to school." Ye Fan saw the fire come up and took off the kettle to cook.
Geng Zhiye: "So you don't have time to go to the army recently?"
